Sesame seeds are high in phytosterols which can improve heart health and boost the immune system. Sesame seeds are also a good source of copper, magnesium, manganese, selenium and fiber.

We stone grind our nut and seed butters to further preserve sensitive vitamins and nutrients.

FUN FACT! Sesame is thought to be one of the oldest spices known to man and was likely the first crop grown for its edible oil.

Shelf life: One year if properly stored

Storage: Cool, dry, dark area. If stored at room temperature, oil may separate--stir before you enjoy! Nut and seed butters can be refrigerated or frozen to extend freshness.

Our Story

Shamans Market is a labor of love and service. We began our spiritual journey in 1994 learning the from wisdom keepers of many earth honoring wisdom traditions mostly in the Americas. We have travelled extensively in Peru and have made many meaningful heart connections with the people of this amazing country.

In 1999 after running out of many of the products we use in our Shamanic practice (and not having a trip to Peru in sight) we decided to import products for our friends and community. We were then and still are today excited to be supporting the growing shamanic community in the US and at the same time providing a fair trade outlet for the exquisite artisans and the indigenous people of the Andes, the Amazon, Tibet and around the world!

Over the years our offerings have grown and we are pleased to now offer these lifestyle products to promote living in harmony with each other and our Earth.
